An Ancestry tree (Glover/Chambers Tree) suggests that the children that we have down for Phineas and Nancy are actually the children of Phineas and Frances.

Frances being descended from George Willetts & Jane Pearson, here:

Fanny/Frances is correct rather than Nancy which is a mistranscription by myself from Roger Boswell records.
I do not have any details of Fanny /Frances line before this

Thanks, Mumbles. I'll change Nancy to Frances and put a note re the poss connection. Maybe a lookup on the marriage? I'll put it on request. Unless anyone has other resources for St. Thomas?
